There are many different ways to install a new vinyl seawall.  The vinyl sheet pilings can be jetted, driven, vibrated, hammered, pushed or trenched and filled.  Marine contractors and engineers often choose the method or combination of methods best suited for the project based on its access, the soil types, and the length/weight of the panels necessary.

Our vinyl sheet piling products can be found locally through selected distributors and we also sell factory-direct.  You can reach our sales department by calling 850-893-5199 or through our online store located at www.BuyShorelineOnline.com

Our SLP-700 is currently our most popular vinyl sheet piling profile, followed by the SLP-350.  The SLP-700 is a 18" wide x .32" thick commercial style sheet for a very competitive price.  The SLP-350 is a .24" thick, 12" wide sheet.

Yes.  The PVC material used in our vinyl sheet piling complies with the ASTM D4216-03 Cell Classification as well as all of the sub-classifications that pertain to vinyl sheet piling.  Shoreline has a rigorous in-house quality control testing procedure.  Additionally, our vinyl sheet piling profiles have been subjected to third party testing by an  independent test lab.  We have an ISO 9000 certified facility verify the compound that we manufacture at our facility, their procedure includes several unannounced verification visits per year and includes verification of origination of all source materials used in our compound and compound analysis to confirm ingredient levels.  All of our various and rigorous QUV testing of our compound and products establishes the highest standard of impact as well as UV fade resistance.  All of our products are strong, tested, fully UV stabilized yet still very competitively priced.

Yes.  In late 2010, Shoreline Plastics became the only PVC sheet piling manufacture to currently own the necessary multi-million dollar equipment to blend bulk-purchased raw resins into virgin PVC compound.  We also have the ability to both mono and co-extrude all of our vinyl sheet piling profiles.

The USACE study was completed back in 2005 and studies various PVC properties and production methods of the four main US producers at the time.  In fact, Some of the  PVC seawall profiles featured in the USACE study are still being manufactured by Shoreline Plastics.

There are currently four major players in the vinyl extrusion sheet piling industry.  Shoreline Plastics possesses the necessary tooling and is currently the only company to offer both mono and co-extruded vinyl sheet piling products.  Both co-extrusion and mono-extrusion processes can produce a top quality seawall profile if done correctly and reliable material is used.  Shoreline Plastics offers both co-extrusion and mono extrusion for all of our seawall profiles.  

Mono-extrusion is the process whereby the seawall profile is made from one homogenous compound that provides all the necessary UV protection, strength and color requirements throughout the entire thickness of the product.  Material cost is higher, but production is slightly easier and quicker.  With mono-extrusion the TiO2 (UV stabilizer) as well as the pigment (additive for desired sheet color) must exist throughout the entire thickness of the sheet; therefore, particular colors can be more costly to make.

Co-extrusion is a process whereby lower cost or recycled material is extruded into the main body of the seawall profile and a higher cost "virgin" compound is extruded in a thin layer by a second extruder to coat the outside of the profile.  This thin, "virgin" layer provides the necessary UV protection as well as the desired pigment/colored coating to the outside of the finished product.  Co-extrusion is an acceptable method of extruding vinyl sheet piling assuming the "virgin" UV-protection and pigment layer is applied properly at the correct thickness, otherwise fading and "UV streaking" can occur.

Currently the vast majority of our sheets sold are being produced using co-extrusion technology.  This method uses 100% virgin compound on the outer part of the sheet.   Starting in summer of 2008 and up until late August 2011 Shoreline profiles were mono-extruded.  Due to increases in resin and other raw material prices as well as increased rages of color requests from customers, Shoreline Plastics began offering co-extruded vinyl sheet piling profiles.  Shoreline Plastics has the tooling and can offer both co-extrusion and mono extrusion extrusion methods on all of our seawall profiles.  Which method is selected or is most popular during a particular period of time depends mainly on the current raw material prices and desired surface color.  Both our Mono and Co-Extruded products offer the same warranty, the best in the business.

Shoreline Plastics manufacturers seawall material in Jacksonville, Florida from a high-quality PVC compound that meets or exceeds the high impact and UV protected standards that the marine seawall industry demands.  We also have the necessary tooling and the ability to both mono and co-extrude all of our seawall profiles based on current raw material prices and particular project demands.  Shoreline is the only vinyl sheet piling manufacture who currently owns in-house the necessary multi-million dollar equipment to blend bulk-purchased raw resins into virgin PVC compound.  We have the material blender, five 18' x 48' high storage silos which hold 1/4 million pounds each of raw material as well as one 12' x 50' mixing silo which can mix 135,000 pounds of raw material.  We own our building and we own all of our equipment.  CLICK HERE TO VIEW SOME PHOTOS OF OUR PLANT (bottom of page) 

With over 1.3 million pounds (approx. 7 rail car loads) of storage capacity, Shoreline takes advantage of volume buying on high-quality raw materials at rail car quantities from independent, competitively-priced vendors.  Therefore, Shoreline purchases raw resin and all of the additional required ingredients such as TiO2 for UV Stabilization, Impact Modifier, Process Stabilizer, Filler, Pigment, etc and blends it all into PVC compound specifically formulated to provide the utmost structurally sound and UV-protected product.   With the ability in-house to blend raw resin into PVC compound, Shoreline is able to save the significant margin outside vendors are normally able to capture and pass the savings onto our customers.  We also eliminate a lot of freight cost by turning raw resin into the finished product all in one location.

We simply spend our dollars on our facility and our product, not on over-priced marketing campaigns, numerous outside sales reps, etc.  We are exclusively in the vinyl extruding business and extrude various vinyl products besides just sheet piling.  We place a fair margin per pound on all of the products we extrude, therefore; we are able to manufacturer a high-quality product and offer it directly to you at a very fair price.  The owners of Shoreline Plastics, LLC have been mono and co-extruding extruding all different types of vinyl products (sheet piling, PVC pipe, CPVC pipe, fence, railing, high-impact well and mine pipe, fire sprinkler pipe, pallet components, etc) and have over 80 years of combined experience (three generations) and know how to extrude a very high-quality, strong product at the utmost efficiency.  Do not let unprofessional sales tactics from our competition make you believe that our products are inferior in anyway.  We do not have the overhead of our competition; therefore, we can offer a superior sheet for less dollars.

The QUV testing of our products establishes the highest standard of UV protection and fade resistance.  All vinyl products that are to be used in outdoor exposed applications require protective additives that inhibit surface fading and impact strength reduction (embrittlement) caused by ultra violet degradation.  All of our PVC/vinyl extruded products contain optimum levels of titanium dioxide (TiO2) to offer exceptional protection against fading and UV degradation; therefore, all of our products are strong, tested, fully UV stabilized yet still very competitively priced.

Shoreline Plastics, LLC relocated into a newly acquired manufacturing facility in 2010.  Shoreline purchased a 41,000 sq ft tilt-wall building on 4.5 acres, on rail close to Jacksonville International Airport and sea shipping terminal.  Access to the port was critical to the growth in their export markets.  The new facility was needed to accommodate their state of the art 50+ million pounds per year compounding equipment and 3 new production lines.  The increased paved outside storage was also required to handle the growth of their seawall business.
